The IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG 2021) Doctoral Consortium aims to provide a forum for doctoral students to discuss their research and career objectives with experienced researchers of international repute. One of the unique benefits of the consortium is the networking environment to establish new contacts and collaborations with other researchers. It will also serve to spread awareness amongst the students about career options in both academia and industry.
The FG 2021 Doctoral Consortium will be a virtual event, starting with an informal introduction by senior researchers followed by doctoral students. Following this, student participants will present their research and receive feedback from the invited committee. The students will also be paired with a mentor from the committee on the conference platform and can interact with their mentor during the conference directly on specific topics of interest.
Doctoral students working on research problems related to the FG community are invited to apply for the Doctoral Consortium. Successful applicants are expected to actively participate in the consortium and the conference. A best doctoral consortium application award will be given to the top applicant.

We encourage submissions from doctoral students working on their dissertations with partially published results. We encourage diversity and equality, both in terms of research topics as well as participating institutions and individuals. We do not expect more than two students to be invited from each institution to represent a diverse sample. Women are especially encouraged to apply. It is not necessary to have a paper appearing in FG 2021 in order to apply to participate.
To apply for the Doctoral Consortium, please submit:
NOTE: All materials should be combined into a single PDF file and submitted through the FG 2021 submission system.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the Doctoral Consortium Technical Program Committee (TPC) members. Paper topics should be related to the conference topics.
Submissions will be evaluated on:
